Career
Martin trained at the National Ballet School of Canada in 1983, and attended film school at the University of Western Ontario and Sheridan College.

Behind the camera, he made a short subject, The Colleague, where he experimented with digital technology, and produced, edited, and acted in Blocked in 2002. Martin's first feature film was Magnus Opus, an improvised mockumentary about a tortured performance artist and his messianic mission to inspire the world of art. Martin co-wrote, co-produced, co-directed, and co-edited the film with Gordon Currie, with Andrika Lawren as the third collaborator. Martin was also the sole cinematographer. Magnus Opus was an official selection at the Philadelphia Film Festival and made its Canadian debut at the Canadian Filmmakers' Festival in Toronto, where it won the Reel Indie Award in 2006.
Since 2008, Andrew has been behind the camera, directing and shooting factual television for a number of US, Canadian, and international networks.
